The War Fear Built

This was heavily inspired by "The House that Fear Built: Warsaw, 1943" by Jane Flanders. I wanted to depict the collective stupidity that brought about World War I by showing the viewpoints of the major players involved.

I am the Archduke with his chest full of lead in Sarajevo.

I am the Emperor who sends men in vain for the Archduke with his chest full of lead in Sarajevo.

I am the Tsar with ancient bonds who fights the Emperor who sends men in vain for the Archduke with his chest full of lead in Sarajevo.

I am the Kaiser in a sacred alliance who attacks the Tsar with ancient bonds who fights the Emperor who sends men in vain for the Archduke with his chest full of lead in Sarajevo.

I am the Kings who wage war against the Kaiser in a sacred alliance who attacks the Tsar with ancient bonds who fights the Emperor who sends men in vain for the Archduke with his chest full of lead in Sarajevo.

The continent, of which I am each part, moves on toward a bloody war, for I am the people too who bury their dead in every town in Europe wailing What's this? What's this?
